Public Photography. BBC "Law in Action"

wrote in : Problems faced by UK photographers were discussed in the BBC's "Law in Action" programme on Tuesday 10th. Hear it at: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/console/b00hd42z starting about 1/3 of the way through. It covers the general issue of taking photos in public places and what has happened when some people fell foul of over-zealous constabulary. No mention of the urban myth about it being illegal to photograph children. Chris UK Photography Law as interpreted by police: Take pictures of kids, you are a pedophile. Take pictures of women, you are a pervert. Take pictures of buildings, you are a terrorist. Yeah, it's always convenient to make oneself feel superior by making someone else to be inferior. We see this all the time in the United States of the Offended. People point fingers pretending to be a good person by pointing out someone else they consider offensive. I ignore any person that presumes they're better than anyone else, and I don't really care if they get upset about it. Happy snaps! -- jer email reply - I am not a 'ten' |
